We are considering using C4 for our architecture diagrams. Many diagramming tools (including Structurizr which was developed specifically for it) support C4. I wonder if there are others that use it and I would like to hear your experiences....
I'm a new grad who started at one of the Big Tech companies this past year. Been recently notified that I'm in danger of being placed under PIP due to underperformance, which I thought was fair due to extenuating familial circumstances. I'm personally feeling despair in being capable or being able to stay in the tech industry...
I'll try to make the context quick. I have been employed as a compiler engineer at a large company in SV (not FAANG) for about a year now. Previously, I've held jobs at a couple companies at the junior level (~4 years total). About 5 years ago, I completed a bachelor's degree in Mathematics at a state university....
I started working for a big corporation about six months ago. Turns out a few months before I started there was a new CTO hired from a startup. This CTO has been on a hiring spree and basically hired all of the technical staff of the startup he came from (to the point that they're suing the company I work for)....
Hello everyone, I've been starting up a computer research laboratory and have been struggling to get enterprise clients for custom dev services or contract work. I've tried cold emailing, calling, and LinkedIn but haven't had any luck. Are there any specific communities or networks where large companies look for people to do...
Which one is easier to develop and work with (which saves the most time)? Which one would you go for? The name of the API represents its true purpose in this case by the way, createOrUpdate creates or updates the passed in meeting and create just creates the meeting. I will be the only one working on this project for now,...
I am considering taking a contract software engineering role with a company I am excited about. We are in the final stages of the interview process, and they are pressuring me for a rate. When they first asked me for a rate, I asked whether they have a typical rate that they pay contractors and they said yes, "based on...
Prologue: Long time Reddit subscriber, this Lemmy thing seems neat. I will probably ditch Reddit completely. Hi everyone!...
I am an experienced developer, but not an experienced manager. I'd prefer if organizing tasks was not my responsibility, but I work at a small company and no one else is inclined to do it. How do you organize miscellaneous tasks when using a task management system such as Jira? We're using GitLab, but it has the same basic...
I haven’t been able to find one and I think it’s important....
I trialed GitHub Copilot and used ChatGPT for a bit, but recently I found myself using them less and less....
In the past, I've done hybrid work, I'd finish all the easy stuff at home and keep the hard stuff for the office, and I'd go in for a couple of days to finish it all....
What are some of your recommendations for books, videos, podcasts, or any other media that inspire and spark more passion for programming and computer science in general? I'm interested in hearing how these resources have helped you grow as a programmer.

Hi! I hope all is well. I am loving this instance and all the communities so far! As I am a new grad software engineer who is gonna start working in the next month, I was wondering if there are some tips, advice and some nuggets of wisdom you want to pass to this clueless person making this post lmao.
I think this is a struggle for many of us. Not only to re-organise existing teams but also positioning teams in a larger organisation. What team composition works for your cases? What roles are filled within a software development team, and what roles run across teams? What kind of teams are there?...
I’ve noticed something interesting about most of the engineers I know—they often lack a deep understanding of the business implications and overall impact of their work. As someone who recognizes the significance of the “bigger picture,” I find myself spending a considerable amount of time explaining and demonstrating...
I’m currently a first-time Tech Lead at about the 1.5 year mark of a 20 person bootstrapped start, with our tech team being 6 people excluding myself (1 Flutter Dev, 2 Server-side Devs, 2 Web Devs, and 1 QA)....
